Student Life

Get Involved

Once the semester begins, we encourage you to get involved on campus.

The Wisconsin School of Business Buddy Program provides you with a link to a UW-Madison business student. If you wish to participate in the Buddy Program, please indicate this on the Buddy Request Form.

Before you arrive, you might like to apply for the BRIDGE Program through the International Student Services (ISS) office. The BRIDGE Program is available for new international students who are interested in being paired up with a U.S. student during the first semester of your studies at UW-Madison. This would be in addition to the Business Buddy Program open to Wisconsin School of Business exchange students.
